Ok. So desktop systems.
How many? Is it one shared among teachers? Or 10 computers in a lab
that students get to try once a year? Or 1000 - every student get a
computer to take home and share with their family and neighbours?
What about connectivity? Do school already have fibre optics to the
internet? Or a modem dialup connection where students take turns to
check their mail once a week? Or will each computer come with a
cellphone and each student buy a cellphone plan out of their own pocket?
Or will you team up with Facebook and offer Free Basics?
What about sharing? Do school already run filesharing server that works
with Linux? Will you also setup and maintain a server? Will you rely on
bittorrent running on each client (and fighting for network bandwidth)?
Or will you rely on Facebook solving that with the censorship buil tinto
Free Basics? Or is sharing not relevant at that school?
